[QUOTE="Jon Potter, post: 1498490, member: 2323"] Thanks, Seravin. That is exactly the kind of help I was hoping for. Unfortunately, I can't make use of the programs you mention since I'm strictly a Mac user. This marks the first time, I've ever wished I had a Windows machine. ;) Anyway, I think I'll shoot for adjusting the adventure to fit rather than doing a faithful conversion. I'm more interested in following the spirit rather than the letter of the adventures in question. They're not commercial adventures, BTW. I've been laying the groundwork in my campaign for an eventual run through the "Melengar Series" of AD&D adventures by Kevin Simmons (available for free download [url=http://members.tripod.com/~KevenSimmons/adventures.html]here[/url]). Something about a villain from the dawn of civilization returning to lay the smack down on the heroes of the present appeals to me. :) Following the spirit of the adventures allows me to play with Prestige/Variant Classes to make this villain out-of-time and his all the more alien to the PCs. My ideas currently include using Malhavoc's Chaositech, Mystic Eye's Blight Magic, and Green Ronin's Unholy Warrior's Handbook - as well as a healthy dose of The book of Vile Darkness. [/QUOTE]
